It’s the Rodcast baby.
On this very special episode of That Peter Crouch Podcast, Pete, Chris, and Sids make a pilgrimage to the stately home of none other than Sir Rod Stewart—rock legend, model train aficionado, and die-hard Celtic fan.
Recorded inside Rod’s private gym and overlooking his personal football pitch, this episode is a goldmine of outrageous stories and charming confessions. From Elton John gifting him a Rembrandt painting, to the infamous drunken Scottish Cup draw, Rod holds nothing back.
He opens up about his lifelong love affair with football, his competitive friendship with Elton, and how his model railway obsession helps him stay grounded (and vocally fit!) while touring the world.
Whether he’s reminiscing about pitch invasions at Wembley, revealing the secrets behind his Vegas shows, or naughty 70's antics, this is Rod Stewart at his most raw and relatable.
